Do you have a #helper? There are times in our lives that we all need help. It maybe that you are very able bodied and feel very capable of complete reliance on self. Today, I see more individuals using mechanical devices to aid their independence. Whether it is a #wheelchair, a #hearing aid, or #limb replacements that has made it possible for many to care for themselves or even others that does not change the fact that all of us need help in this world. At my age I have had many helpers: parents, spouse, children, friends, teachers, pastors, doctors, carpenters, repairmen, yard and house help. The one consistent never failing helper in my life is the LIVING GOD who has worked HIS love through the afore mentioned individuals. “THE LORD PRESERVES THE SIMPLE – I WAS BROUGHT LOW AND HE HELPED ME” Ps.116:6 “Give wisdom to the simple and to the young give knowledge and discretion. A wise one will hear and will increase learning and attain wise counsel.” Prov.1:4,5 In all situations in life we make choices that windup helping or hurting us and others. Some choices make us become addicted to substances, people, or behaviors ! God is aware of our strengths and our weaknesses all He asks is that we turn to Him -just ask He hears you. “When evil comes upon you….cry unto LORD GOD while in your affliction and GOD WILL HEAR AND HELP” 11Chronicles20:9 “Let your conversation be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have, for Lord said, ‘I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU OR FORSAKE YOU’ so with good courage we may say ‘THE LORD IS MY HELPER’ remember those who have spoken to you the word of GOD and follow in faith ...JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME YESTERDAY AND TODAY AND FOREVER” Heb.13:5-8
THE LIVING GOD IS MY HELPER
